SML programming

Write one function du(a,b) which returns a list of a b times (b>=0). Must use identical function name and parameter(s).
du(2,1) ⟶[2], du(4,3) ⟶[4,4,4] 

Expert Solution
Step 1
Here function defintion is given , du(a,b)
So here is the code given below with proper comments:
CODE:
def du(a,b): # defining the function
l=[] # creating a list
for i in range(b): #running the loop for b times
l.append(a) # append a to the list
return l # return the list
a=4
b=3
final_list = du(a,b) #calling the function
print(final_list)
 
OUTPUT:
[4, 4, 4]
